modifications associated with fire barrier penetration seals on certain vents and drains have been avoidably delayed beyond their original scheduled completion. " This statement should have read, "... have been unavoidably delayed beyond their original scheduled completion." A' copy of the corrected page for the stated NRC Safety Evaluation is enclosed.
